Busy Bee!

So much has been going on since I last posted...I drove to my mom's last week to make a trip to HOTlanta with her for work. Just getting to her house was an adventure in itself!! I drove my car...with the dogs...in the back of the car!!
Imagine these two in the back of a VW Beetle!
No worries...I dropped down the backseat, and took out the thing separating the backseat from the trunk, so they had a ton of room in the back!! Once we got to Florida I dropped the boys off with their trainer, who was super excited and happy to have them back staying with her...then made it to my mom's house to go have dinner. We left on Wednesday to go to Hotlanta, stopped in Montgomery to have dinner with my 2nd grandpa on my mom's side (super good to see his face), and finally made it into Hotlanta. The next day we went to breakfast, and my mom was off to her meeting which gave me time to work on school stuff. Once she was done we.went.SHOPPING!!! I was super excited because we don't live around a REAL mall here...so I was very happy to be able to visit my beloved Nordies for the first time in a long time...Well after we went shopping we found out that we had to drive to Macon, GA (home to Warner Robins AFB air force friends) to drop something off for my mom's work, and boy am I glad that Freddie did not get stationed there! That place really is in the middle of nowhere!! We had a great time though, and laughed at just about everything!! Anywho, after that we drove back to FL. We were both tired, but I knew that I was going to have to get up early the next day to go get my boys and head back to GA...again. So I went home, and then was able to blow off some steam with Sadler family and friends!! We had a wonderful time! I finished classes on Sunday, and have the rest of the week off...it's my summer vaca!! So what have I been doing on this summer vaca you ask?? Well let me tell you...
1. Cleaned out my desk area/ rearranged all the books that I own
2. Cleaned out my safe and got rid of tons!
3. Went to see Midnight in Paris ( It was amazing!! My recommendation...go see it! But it is Woody Allen, so you need to understand that from the start.)
4. Registered for classes/ got into a fight with financial aid & one of my professors!!
And it's just Tuesday!! I know that doesn't seem like much, but it takes much longer than one would think...Anyway, I will update y'all later!! Have a wonderful evening!!

HUBS!!

So yesterday was a wonderful day because I celebrated 4 years of marriage to a wonderful man!!
This guy to be exact!
I had great well wishes from so many people which makes me happy! Freddie called me bright and early to tell me how much he loved me and couldn't be happier...which is what everyone wants to hear from their loved one!! It was a wonderful day that my mom helped me celebrate by going to dinner and the bookstore! Tons of fun, and I'm so thankful to everyone for all the Happy Anniversaries!! I couldn't ask for a better husband and best friend...he makes me laugh, listens when I need to complain, and let's me cry over silly things like where we'll be moving to next. He is amazing and I love him to death! I cannot believe that it has already been 4 years...and 7 years of actually being together!! Craziness...and I love every second of it. Thanks for being mine babe. You're the best. Eu te amo!!

Spin Away...

I have befriended some of the group fitness instructors on base, and it makes me much happier to go to the gym knowing that I will run into one of them...no pun intended. Well one of my friends teaches a spin class which is a crazy, hard, super awesome workout. I have attended spin classes before, but I normally prefer cardio and strength training classes. Well one of my friends has decided to go on hiatus, and go to Cali for a month before he PCS's which has forced me to look for new classes other than my normal cardio class. So I tell my friend that I will attempt to go to her spin class, which is at 7 AM on Wednesdays...I failed last week. But this week I have my mom, who thinks it is normal to get up before the sun rises, here to be my alarm clock that will not turn off. We made it to class today right before a squadron decided to attend the same class. I was thankful that 1. she saved us two bikes...up in the front no less and 2. once she started class she turned the lights off, but had this cute strobe/disco ball light on that helped brighten my spirits and make me feel like I was riding into the 60's and 70's...although the music was definitely NOT of those era's. Needless to say I kept up, but it.was.hard. I think I may go back...not sure that I will make it a weekly thing, but if I go every Wednesday, and some other days that it is offered I may actually be able to ride long distances outside of a spin room. I love trying new workouts, and I am always grateful when I have people to try them with me. So we shall see what the future holds as far as my venture out to different styles of workout, but I do love a good burn. Guess that is why I will have my degree in December in Sports and Health Science...until then spin away!!

Starting out slow!

So today has started out very slowly...I couldn't sleep last night, so I started reading my book The Heart of the Matter by Emily Giffin (love her by the way) and I was just getting the to part of the book that you don't want to put down because it's getting so good...only problem was it was two in the morning!! So unfortunately I put it down and went to sleep knowing that my sweet little Guns would wake me up bright and early full of eagerness and hunger to start the day...which is exactly what happened!
But how can you be mad at this face?!
So now I'm attempting to start/finish writing a workout plan for one of my classes, but it just seems so much easier to write plans for others versus myself. Plus, my mom is here to hang out with me for the rest of the week! 
This sweet lady right here!!
And although she's working right now... there are other things that I would rather do! Anyway...I hope that everyone has a lovely day...especially you Chels...since you're my first and only follower!! :)

Poor boys...

So Freddie and I thought it would be a great idea to order the boys (Diesel and Gunner) some outdoor gear!! We ended up ordering 2 pfd's since Guns has a hard time swimming in anything but the ocean, and Diesel gets tired kind of quickly! We also ordered 2 sets of shoes that have vibram soles!! Every time we go running in the woods or hiking poor Gunner gets his paws all jacked up! So we put their shoes on them first which was hilarious to us, not so much to them, and let them walk around the house to get used to them. Both of the boys didn't even want to move, so we took them outside to play frisbee and that really got them going! Diesel acted like he didn't even have shoes on, but Gunner's back legs were coming up so high it was super funny. I felt bad though because it almost seemed as if we were torturing them! So after they got used to the shoes we took them inside to try on their vests!! This was the end product...
Diesel Mac

They were so tired after running around outside!

Gunner
Needless to say they were happy to get this gear off! We have yet to use it in actual locations this gear was made for, but we can't wait!! I'm sure they can wait, but we're super excited! So I highly recommend Ruff Wear to anyone who has dogs. Their gear is amazing, and very nice. Somewhat expensive, but totally worth it if your dogs are a part of your family like ours are. I hope everyone has a doggone wonderful day!! :)

Good Morning!

My weekend is officially over! My dad left last night, but we had a great time! Saturday we fixed the laundry room sink...thanks to having done pipe work at his house while Freddie was gone I was able to diagnose the problem, and he was able to help me fix it!! Handy woman in the works! Sunday we went to see Kung Fu Panda 2!! 
It was super cute!! 
I love feel good movies that make everyone smile!!
Monday we went to the gym, and had a crazy good workout! I did my mile run, and then did some strength training which is always fun. I don't know if anyone else's gym is like this, but every time I go into the weight room I get strange looks from all the men because that's all there is in there!! It's like the He-man-woman-haters-club, and there are no girls allowed!! Oh well...I'll just keep going and prove to them that women are strong too!! Anyway...have a great Tuesday!!

Hello Bloggers!

Hello fellow bloggers! I thought it was time that I enter the world of blogging to have an outlet as well as something to do! 


Things are somewhat busy/crazy at the Kight house because I am attempting to finish all of my homework (a paper, 2 discussion boards and responses, a short essay and a paper proposal) today as well as get ready for my dad to come visit!!
The best Dad EVER!

So I know that blogging is probably the last thing I should be doing, but this seems to be more fun!! Freddie is busy studying for Jump Master School which he will be leaving for next week, and this comes right on the heels of him testing for Staff!! Fingers crossed folks...we find out in August, so I'll update y'all then!!
Any who, just wanted to say hey and have a wonderful weekend!! More on Monday!!
